I've had this problem from long ago since Vista: from time to time (very random) my thumbnail cache resets and is kinda annoying to reload every photo and video again... is this normal?
thx in advance.

While there is no limit on the thumbnail cache in Windows 7, I suppose that if it was a very large photo and video collection in that folder it may cause it to choke out and lag on you. As a workaround, you might see if separating some of them into smaller groups of photos and videos in different subfolders (ex: for different categories) may help.

Thanks Brink, ill put them in separate folders and clear the cache just in case... ill keep you update of any changes...

Hey Brink, i do as u told me and so far things where good till this morning when i check my pictures folder the thumbnails are rebuilding again, so i went to clean the thumbnails to check the size and it shows only 4MB so i do not clear it and went to videos folder same thing (rebuilding), so after it finish went to disk clean up again to check the size and its bigger so i think if it is a choke out and lag thing (only checking category folders no the actual files, 44 folders inside pictures 4 folders in videos) why to rebuild the whole thing?, what do you think? btw if i need to post this in another section (cause after all this isn't related 'bout ur tut) pls let me know, thx.

Thumbnail cacheI modified some files in OS, like:
imageres.dll, explorerframe.dll, pnidui.dll and SndVolSSO.dll
When i use Ccleaner, do i have to uncheck the option " Thumbnail Cache " ?!
Thanks.

Thumbnail CacheIve got some questions about the Thumbnail Cache, excuse me if I'm in the wrong topic I wasn't sure were to put this.

Windows Disk clean up and Ccleaner both clear the Thumbnail Cache, why is this? Why would it be good to clear it out? Also what exactly is the Thumbnail Cache?
Thanks!...
